Making mini's at last!

Finally i have the mini bug back. It's only taken me about six plus weeks to find!Last night and today i've been making potions and some other little items. Plus i started a new hat making table. Loads to do to the table still and this one is going to have an under shelf with material and hat boxes.All that's here needs little bits and bobs still. Will also be making lots of other small items this week... hopefully, and more potions. Will let you know when they are available for sale on etsy.The liquid filled potions are resin. I forget the names of the real insect wings in the dragonfly jars. Debie from piskies sent the wings to me some time ago, but sadly these are the last of them. The pumpkin is for Ira. I promised her one ages ago and finally its almost ready.Sorry if im not prompt with emails at the moment. Ive not been well for quite some time and struggle to focus on answering them. But i am feeling ok at the moment and will work my way through them this week hopefully.

Oh wow!!! Can I already make a reservation for these cool potion bottles? ;D They are great!And the hat making table is already looking so good! Can't wait to see them on your Etsy shop - althought probably will be too slow as usual ;D

I love those potion bottles!!! They are fabulous. Like is my sleeping pumping, love him :) And that hat table will be fabulous :) And as you're making some minies like a machine again, just an idea - all the books are always vampire hunter books, you wouldn't come up with some idea for a book for a vampire to read? I've been unsuccesfully trying to find some stuff for my vampire room which is going to be quite stylish, but all the books are for killing the vamps - he doesn't want to read them :D

Can't wait those minies to be in Etsy, have to practice my "commit to buy"-move on the keyboard :D

Great to see so many wonderful Minis Nikki. I know the feeling Ive just not got any enthusiasm at the moment but Ive decided to stop beating myself up about it and wait until the will to make minis returns! Your love of minis shines through in this new work, love the shape of those new bottles, and of course the hat table, they are my fav pieces! Hope you just feel better and better, Love Kate xxx

Cicada wings... I think thats maybe what my Twinikins sent you? I have some here too.... somewhere, I shall hunt them out for you if you want some more as I doubt I'll get around to using them when I forgot I have them & dont even know where they are!!! LOL its good to see you mini-ing again x

Great to see you back doing your miniatures and also feeling a bit better.Your new lines are looking great :-)I think it's good to have little pockets of rest in between making miniatures. If nothing else so you can spend some time on yourself! That's why I like making my little hats when I get fed up making Witches hats I can do hats from different periods of history or fantasy. Makes it more interesting. Well talking if which I better pack up for the night making lots of silk roses. Sold my first period hat today so very pleased :-)take care Nikki lots of love from Kat, Dan and Pickle the dog xxxxxxxxxxx

Love all your work Nikki! It is always such a delight to look at. Sorry to hear that you have been ill. Glad to see you're getting back on your feet and returning to the mini's. It is something you are really good at!
